Lyrics copied from Blue Rodeo website: www.bluerodeo.com

Key: G

Verse:
G
I want to know where my confidence went
C G
One day it all disappeared
G D/F# Em
And I'm lying in a hotel room miles away
C D
Voices next door in my ear

G
Day time is bad, nighttime worse
C G
Hope that I can get home soon
G D/F# Em
But the half-finished bottles of inspiration
C D
Lie like ghosts in my room

Am
I want to go
D
I know I can't stay
C
But I don't want to run
D
Feeling this way

Chorus:
Am Bm C D
Til I am myself
Am Bm C D
Til I am myself
Am Bm C D G
Til I am myself again

There's a seat on the corner I keep every night
Wait til the evening begins
I feel like a stranger from another world
But at least I'm living again

There are nights full of anger
Words that are thrown
Tempers that are shattered and thin
And the moments of magic
Are just too short
They're over before they begin

I know it's time
One big step
I can't go
I'm not ready yet
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again

Instrumental:
D C G-C G, Em Bm C D, Am D G-D/F# Em, C C D D-C-D, G

I had a dream that my house was on fire
People laughed while it burned
I tried to run by my legs were numb
I had to wait til the feeling returned

I don't need a doctor to figure it out
I know what's passing me by
When I look in the mirror
Sometimes I see traces of some other guy

I want to go
I know I can't stay
But I don't want to run
Feeling this way
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again
